    Get drunk, stay drunk.

    I withdrew from everyone for weeks, but I found that it's more healthy to be wtih family and friends during that time than without. Also a lot of comfort food. A lot.

    (hide everything that reminds you of them too)

    I cut all contact and go out and have fun. Easy :)

    Make up a drinking game to go along with your favourite show. This works best if your favourite show is on tv at least 4 times a day, like scrubs or something that's constantly on repeat. Either that, or something you own the boxset of so you won't run out of programs anytime soon.

    Best way to get over a woman is to get under another one.

    have fun. watch funny things, talk to funny people, and do fun things. the best way to start getting over someone is to realise you have a good time without them.

    Put songs on repeat like "It must have been love, but it's over now", "Don't wanna be, all by myself", and "Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry".
    After a few weeks, I emerge from my bedroom, and cry everytime I pass somewhere that reminds me of "him".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,261 ✭✭✭Sonics2k


    Drink Whiskey, listen to Korn on high volume, go out with mates and have fun.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    lots and lots of nights out with friends.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 976 ✭✭✭Arnold Layne


    Start off by getting drunk, throw on Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan.

    This will last a few days.

    Then progress to good ol' punk & metal. My preference has always been the Misfits, i.e. Die , Die My Darling.



    After that, go out and get laid. It doesn't matter what he/she looks like, just get laid.

    I usually get drunk for a few months and try to fcuk anything that walks. Doesn't even have to walk...

    It depends on a lot of things, but time is the only thing that gets you over an ex.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,291 ✭✭✭wild_cat


    Last time it happened to me I smoked around 40 a day and partied harder for five months than I ever have in my life. It's like the event turned me manic.

    I met him out one of those nights and we are now back together :).

    One word of advice. Stay away from What do want from me by monaco any music cred you had will go out the window.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,054 ✭✭✭✭Professey Chin


    Get miserable, bitter, jealous and live in the gym.
    Works pretty well. Dropped nearly 2 stone since the last one :pac:

    Call them a thousand times a day until they take out a restraining order.

    Then stalk celebrities

    Go to a bar with mates, close your eyes, and point! You then sleep with the first person you point at regardless what they look like, sex, etc! Just do it! :D (and be safe while doing so :P)

    I'd joke with my mates about the things she would of decided to say about me to split from me.

    Then when I'm on my lonesome, I'd cry / **** meself to sleep.

    rinse and repeat...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,068 ✭✭✭Bodhisopha


    I spread a rumour about her having a small dick.

    A stolen car, a shovel, and a bag of lime.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,933 ✭✭✭Logical Fallacy


    I can't think of a single break up that didn't result in me getting hip deep in some chick within 24 hours.

    So i guess i tend to use sex to get over them.

    Get drunk, then have wild sex with some random stranger!

    Repeat until your ex is a distant memory! :D

    The usual:
    • Text them constantly saying that they've made a mistake and pleading with them to reconsider.
    • Cry into a pillow maniacally screaming "THERE'S NO POINT!"
    • Looooads of Adele.
    • When I'm ready to move on...then I listen to Eamon '**** You' on repeat and yell the lyrics until the neighbours complain.
    • Change my status to single.
    • More maniacal texts. Each one getting more disturbing...especially since she's not writing back anymore.
    • Kill their cat.
    • Ride a fat bird to try fill the hole. It never does.
    • Then Facebook stalk them until they find someone else and make a list of reasons I'm better than him. To make myself feel better and prove to my friends that I'm so over her. The bitch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,713 ✭✭✭✭Novella


    I just try to focus on any positive in the situation tbh, and keep myself busy.
